Note: In voice activation mode, if there is no sound for 1 minute, the recorder will
save the current file and go into standby mode. It will start recording again a new file
whenever audio is detected again.
-
Note: While it is commonly referred to as “voice activation mode”, any audio
detected nearby above the 60dB activation level will trigger recording, so placing
the recorder in a noisy environment (like a moving vehicle) may cause the device
to record continuously in voice activation mode due to ambient noise.

the current file, and the device will be turned off.

Recording Audio
The VR95 has the ability to set a time/date stamp on the recordings so that you know exactly when your audio files are recorded. The time set
widget can be used on Windows/PC computers only. The time set widget will not work on Mac computers. The time/date stamp setting process only
takes a few seconds, so if you have a Mac and want to set the time/date stamp, you can use any PC you have access to to complete this process.
• To set the time and date stamp, first plug the VR95 recorder into your computer’s USB port. Next, download the time set widget from our support
website http://support.spygeargadgets.com. Click on the VR95 voice recorder link, and then click on the “Time Set Widget” link to view the detailed
instructions for downloading and using the time set widget. Please note that as mentioned in the detailed time setting instructions on the support
page, the Time Setup executable file must be copied and ran from the main/root directory of the flash drive in order to set the time properly.
Once you have completed the time set process, keep a copy of the time set file handy (such as on the flash drive), so if the internal battery is
exhausted, which will reset the time time, you can reset the time quickly with the time set file. You can also keep a backup copy on your computer.
